I thought he was excellent in the first half and swamped in the second until we got green on down the left to give him some support and an outlet. Whelan that is.

Bacuna was a bag of spanners and should be sold.There are some players that simply carry too much baggage to pull it back with the fans. Bacuna and Richards are in the same boat in that respect.



I think Richards is far ahead of Bacuna who at least turns up (admittedly still poor though)

Reading ( guessing ) could be taking Bacuna by the sounds of things. Looking to get rid of some of leftover dross to get Snodgrass possibly?

Would be tremendous so probably not.

The commentator said during the game that an unnamed Championship club have made an offer for him.  Bruce has just confirmed that in his post match interview.

I thought it was his best game for a while.

Good stuff, we've got Bjarnasson that can cover all positions badly now so don't really need Bacuna anymore.

Kind of sorry to see him go because despite the flak he's taken at times, he's never hidden but it's probably for the best all round.

No doubt there'll be another scapegoat along during the season.

I think the player referred to as the Icelandic Platt is already in pole position.

Scapegoat my arse. He deserved every bit of stick he's ever received.
File him alongside the likes of Westwood, Lowton, Bennett and co, the utter shit that weren't fit to wear a Villa Shirt.
